Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS)
Does Amazon SQS and other “messaging as a service” applications mean that companies can start to think about reducing their ongoing expenses of licensed or hosted messaging systems? According to Amazon, Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) offers a reliable, highly scalable, hosted queue for storing messages as they travel between computers. By using Amazon [...]

Following up with CEP is Not a Just a Technology and Not Just a Tool, here is a link my September 26, 2006 TIBCO public presentation where I discuss SOA, EDA and CEP/EP. View SlideShare presentation or Upload your own. (tags: tibco bass) Please note I am no longer with TIBCO, simply posting a past [...]

I read the debate (here, here and here) on how Complex Event Processing (CEP) fits into the wider software architectural themes of Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) and Event Driven Architectures (EDA). More comments and blog posts followed (including this one, and this one). Frankly speaking, I was surprised to see so much misunderstanding on fundamental [...]

For archiving purposes, I have uploaded 24 public CEP presentations that I presented over an 18 month period at various conferences from March 14, 2006 to September 21, 2007.

Read moreThe Genesis of Complex Event Processing: Asymmetric Capabilities
More often than not, folks working in the field of complex event processing do not truly understand CEP. We often see the same folks try to position and mischaracterize CEP as business process orchestration, business process management, event-driven architecture or even an evolution of service-oriented architecture. Well-intended, this mischaracterization of CEP is often for sales [...]

I was pleased to read the Paul Vincent’s post, TIBCO BusinessEvents 3.0. TIBCO has always had a forward thinking vision for distributed computing and this release of BE 3.0 is another step in the right direction. TIBCO now has the only commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) event processing platform on the market that supports distributed event processing, multi-agent [...]
Read moreCEP is Not Low Latency Messaging, EAI or ESB
In respose to CEP is Not BPM, BAM, BRE, BRMS or SOA, fellow blogger Mark Palmer posts, Smart Order Routing and CEP – Made for Each Other. Mark does a good job describing his perspective on smart order routing (SOR), yet his counterpoint that SOR is “complex event processing” is quite unconvincing. I agree with Mark that SOR is [...]

A post in Technology content of current CEP products? reminds me of why I rarely, if ever, agree with anything that comes out of Aleri’s marketing team. To fair to Jeff, it is not only Aleri but others, who continually misdefine business process management (BPM) as CEP. Jeff uses the example, “Smart Order Routing” as an example [...]
Read moreCEP is to Architecture as SOA is to Architecture
I am often asked pointed questions (mostly from the stream processing crowd) like, ” What product does CEP?” Sometime it seems my answer determines the fate of that relationship, as my feet are grilled over the CEP-fire to be beat of jungle drums! The amount of money I have lost in deals that did not [...]
Read moreMessaging and Event Processing
In On Messaging and Events asks, “Is event processing just fancy name to message processing ?” Most event processing systems would be incomplete without the ability to process events in the form of messages. Messages can be delivered in either a connection-oriented protocol or a connectionless protocol. Most enterprise-class messaging systems have both. Many messaging systems have [...]
